HI,
the top B Schools are as follows
Categorisation of the Top 75 Institutes in India
The Top 75 management institutes in the country have
been divided into five broad categories. A numerical
ranking often does not have a sound scientific basis.
The parameters and, more importantly, the weightages
given to these tend to be extremely subjective. The
resultant rankings too, are thus subject to many
fierce debates. In this case, T.I.M.E. has used its
extensive student database and experience in the field
to categorise the top 75 institutes.
Broadly speaking these categories are meant to aid the
students in applying to institutes. Within a category,
the institutes are of approximately the same quality.
Of course, the categorisation is only indicative and
students should make independent inquiries before
taking a final decision about which institutes to
apply to.
The Top 10 are the so-called 'ivy-league' institutes
that every student dreams of getting admission to.
Many of these institutes are comparable with the best
institutes in the world. Indeed, some of them
regularly feature in the lists released by
international business magazines.
These institutes invariably have a 100% placement
record. Even the not-so-good students at these
institutes manage to get very good jobs on account of
the rub-off effect of the institute.
The Top 4 specialisation institutes have been placed
in a separate category. These are institutes that do
not offer a general MBA like the other institutes.
Rather, they offer a specialisation in a particular
functional area. All these institutes would rank among
the Top 20 institutes in India and some of them could
even lay claim to a Top 10 position. Placements at
these institutes are normally pretty good even though
they are restricted to the functional area that the
institute specialises in. XLRI's PM&IR programme would
also fall in this category.
The "A+" & "A" categories of institutes are those that
fall into the Top 30. They offer a high quality of
education in terms of faculty quality and
infrastructure facilities. These institutes usually
have a 100% placement record. Only the poor performers
at these institutes may have some difficulties
regarding placements. Some of the top students at
these institutes should be able to secure placements
that are comparable to those offered at the Top 10
institutes. Most students should be more than happy to
join these institutes if they are able to get
admission.
The "B+" category of institutes offers a consistent
quality of education in terms of faculty quality and
infrastructure facilities even though these may not be
comparable to those of the top institutes. These
institutes are successful in providing placements to
their top students, especially those with good
communication skills, but do not have 100% placement
record. A student at one of these institutes would
have to work extra-hard to secure a good rank and high
marks so as to enhance his placement chances.
The "B" category of institutes are those that are well
regarded at a local level. These institutes may not
provide too many national level placement
opportunities but are generally successful in
providing placements to many of their students with
prominent local companies.
